the biggest that ive seen are 44's, but that was on a fully customized one(straight axle, coilovers... the works) the usual Big tire size are 38's which you can run with the TC 5.5in lift and a 3 inch body. the thing is thought when you run pretty much anything bigger than a 33 with an independent front suspension , and you wheel the truck, then you will have problems holding the alignment, just that the craptastic IFS wasnt made for wheelin. if you want to run big tires for the look then you can get away with the IFS, but if you want to wheel the truck then just swap in a straight axle and avoid the broken parts and constant re-alignments. later

Heh.. every time I go wheeling I have to get my truck re-aligned.. We keep having to go in and beef it all up and re-align it. Eventually I'm sure it'll hold the alignment but not yet :-\

tylor,
You would need a custom made lift to clear those size tires. Your best bet would be to contact a shop that specializes in custom suspension fabrication. Depending on what part of the country you are in, that may be hard to find. Expect to hear a price quote in the $thousands$ of dollars. Good luck, and let us know how you make out!
